Brad, when searching for an author's posts a large number were listed however only a few recent ones were showing up. Are there backup failure type holes in the archives since 2009?

Darn it Brad.
Now that is a disappointment.
I'd spotted answers/posts by silicasynergy before and thought they were either Boyce or his son as they were just too well informed. So, now that the truth is out I thought I'd re-read them. This scenario is very much like all those posts that were lost from Glassburl and his castings.
Last of all there were those hilarious posts by Jackie Beckman, in particular about the 'Boulder's Resort'.
The internet is ephemeral and a pain when it vaporizes.
The lesson is to copy and paste into a word/pages document more often.
Thanks for this board.
